In order to achieve optimum application results please follow the handling instructions. Storage and handling instructions ATP GRAPHICS products are delivered as roll goods and should be stored vertically on the roll block-support (included) or suspended with roll-core end blocks. Never store the rolls lying-down. The products in the original packaging must be stored in dry conditions with a relative humidity between 50 – 60 % and temperature between + 18 °C – + 22 °C. Do not expose the products to direct sunlight or store next to a heating radiator. Please consult our technical data sheets regarding the shelf life of each product. Opened rolls should be stored in their original packaging and covered with a protective cover. We recommend to use only material with the same batch number for one graphical application. In this context ATP ensures that every film roll consists of material of the same batch no. and consequently does not have any splice. When different batch numbers are used the technician should make tests to find out possible differences in using the films and in the quality of the graphical application. Printing instructions In order to avoid surface detoriation or contamination the digital printing materials must be applied with reasonable care wearing cotton gloves. Before printing the digital printing materials must be acclimatised to room temperature in order to avoid border corrugation. All ATP PRINT digital printing materials require different printer profiles and RIP software settings. With regards to drying temperature please activate maximum temperature limits. Monomeric materials can be dried between 50 °C and 60 °C and polymermaterials between 60 °C and 70 °C. The exact value depends on amounts and types of inks used on the print and the speed ofprinting. Very high temperatures can cause PVC films to cockle or wave, high shrinkage and yellowing of the PVC. Excessive heat can also lead to softening of the film and therefore overexpansion in the printer. When this phenomenon appears please reduce the printer temperature immediately. With regards to the application areas (in- and outdoor) please make sure that durability of digital printing materials and ink correspond. After printing the digital printing materials are to be stored at least 24 h at room temperature in order to achieve sufficient drying. Lamination To protect your printed materials from scratches or damage we recommend the use of ATP lamination films. ATP GUARD films help you achieve the desired colour tones and give your materials the right gloss, matt, semi-gloss or textured effect. The lamination films also guard your printed materials from UV radiation whilst providing protection from humidity and abrasion. Make sure that the chosen protective film is compatible with the print surface; e.g. combine monomeric printed vinyl with monomeric overlaminate vinyl or polymeric with polymeric films. Lamination instructions can be found in the ATP PRINT product tables in our ATP GRAPHICS brochure. For excellent results cleanliness is of the utmost importance. Contamination can 3 be removed easily with conventional cleaning detergents. Before laminating the printed films the prints must be allowed to dry completely in order to avoid inclusion of solvents not yet evaporated which could result in image rub-off. Insufficient drying of printed films may also result in damaging the lamination film adhesive which causes bubbling. Another effect of insufficient drying is the re-solvation of the semi-dried ink. ATP GUARD protection films and ATP MOUNT mounting tapes can be cold laminated but in order to achieve better flow characteristics and to avoid silvering, we recommend a lamination temperature between 40 °C and 60 °C. To achieve optimal mechanical durability between the laminating- / mounting films and print medium the laminated product should be put aside until the final bonding strength has been achieved, usually a few hours after lamination. Laminated and/ or mounting prints must be rolled up and transported with a large radius as possible and with the laminating film on the outside of the roll in order to avoid tunneling. Bonding ATP digital printing materials can be applied to a wide range of surfaces. They must be clean, dry and free of grease, dirt, silicone and other contaminants. For best results clean the surface with a standard cleaner followed by a suitable solvent such as isopropanol (IPA) which will completely degrease the surface. Be sure to allow the surface to dry completely since solvent residues may cause bubbling between film and surface. ATP digital printing materials are suitable to apply to wet surfaces. Temporary whitening may appear but will disappear after a short period once the adhesive has completely dried. Do not use the product under the recommended minimum application temperature which can be found in the appropriate technical data sheet. Generally bonding should be made under stress-free conditions. Removal For advertising graphics removal we recommend to start with one corner and slowly peel off the surface with a 60° – 90 ° peel angle. It may be helpful to use a hot-air blower or metal scraper but this must be used with caution to avoid surface damage. The use of ATP GRAPHICS products allows for easy removal from a variety of surfaces with low or no adhesive residue. Especially recommended for no adhesive residue upon removal is the use of the removable product GM-107 R/P. In the unlikely event that some adhesive residues remain on the surface they can easily be removed with a lemon-based cleaner or solvent (e.g. heptanes, isopropylicalcohol, acetone). All our products are subjected to strict quality control in accordance with our total quality management system ISO/TS 16949, DIN EN ISO 9001 and DIN EN ISO 14001.
